It isn't romance, but... I have written a story here.

YEAH THAT GIVES ME LITTLE TO NO INCENTIVE TO READ IT.
WHERE IS THE DRAMA?
THE COMPELLING COMPLEXITY OF LOVE AND LOSS?
FUCK, I'D EVEN SETTLE FOR HUMANITY'S LINEAR SENSE OF WHAT ROMANCE IS.
IF YOU WANT TO IMPROVE YOUR LITERARY ABILITIES AND EXPAND YOUR AUDIENCE BEYOND PATHETIC BASEMENT DWELLERS
WRITE A LOVE STORY.

U-Um, I don't know much about romance in general though s-so I don't think I'd be good at writing a love story...

WHAT?
YOU DON'T KNOW *ANYTHING* ABOUT ROMANCE?
NOTHING?
NOT EVEN THE WATERED DOWN TRIPE THAT HUMANS CALL ROMANCE?

Not really I think... I suppose I know what it means to 'like' someone or did at least but beyond that I don't really know.

YOU ARE TRULY A WRETCHED CREATURE IF YOU CAN'T EVEN COMPREHEND THE CONCEPT OF ROMANCE.
LUCKILY I'M A BIT OF AN EXPERT ON THE SUBJECT.
I'LL EDUCATE YOU.
YOU'LL BE IN THE DARKNESS NO LONGER.

[Sob so mean why... but okay this is a good opportunity to try and learn something.]

O-Oh, okay! I'm not sure how good of a student I'll be, but I'll try my best to learn!

[ because he is an awful creature ]

IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL ANY BETTER
I HOLD NO EXPECTATIONS FOR YOU.
NONE.
SO NO MATTER HOW GODAWFUL YOU ARE
YOU HAVE NOWHERE TO GO BUT UP
BECAUSE I ALREADY EXPECT FAILURE FROM YOU.
THAT SAID
YOUR SCHOOLING BEGINS WITH ONLY ONE OF THE FOUR ROMANTIC QUADRANTS:
MATESPRITSHIP.
IT'S THE ONE MOST CLOSELY RELATED TO THE HUMAN EQUIVALENT OF ROMANCE
SO IT SHOULD BE THE ONE YOU'RE MOST FAMILIAR WITH.

[SOBBING.]

I-I see... Um, matespritship, okay... [/actually writing things down]

THIS IS THE FLUSHED QUADRANT AND IS A FORM OF "RED ROMANCE."
THIS MEANS THAT IT'S ROOTED STRONGLY IN POSITIVE EMOTIONS.
OF COURSE, THAT DOESN'T MEAN A MATESPRITSHIP ISN'T RIFE WITH ITS OWN TURMOIL AND INSANITY
BUT WHAT DISTINGUISHES IT FROM THE OTHER QUADRANTS IS THAT
AT THE END OF THE DAY
YOU CAN STARE INTO YOUR MATESPRIT'S EYES AND FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT WITH THE WORLD.
IT'S SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW.

It certainly sounds nice, though it's a bit strange to think that not every romance is rooted in positive emotions.
